Tug 168 Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Just use a "squirrel/mink" trap. Best results can be had by pre-baiting at the base of a tree in an area where they are known to be present/causing problems. Best I've had is 8 in 24hrs in 2 traps on the rear lawn of a country house. Quote Link to post
